STORY from JIWA JAWA

One of Java’s best qualities, besides its fertile land, is the hospitality of its people. Nurturing, friendly and sincere are only some of the Javanese’s best values. At Jiwa Jawa, we bring the authentic Javanese hospitality to provide a home away from home for each of our guests. The name, meaning the soul of Java, refers to the deep admiration of authentic Javanese way of living, which we base our services on. Such admiration is also the foundation to our principal as a community-conscious resort. We believe we are a part of the local environment.

Jiwa Jawa is located in three of Java’s most iconic locations - Bromo, Ijen and Semarang. Our strategic locations are matched with top quality service that aims to put a smile on guests’ faces. The locations also allow for exploration around natural and manmade beauty around the vicinity, making your trip a perfect balance between great outdoor experience and soulful service.

Sustainability Programme at Jiwa Jawa

We work closely with local organisation Sahabat Bromo, with a shared vision to promote the livelihood of the local Tengger community. Through Sahabat Bromo, we are able to create a platform where all stakeholders at Bromo Tengger Semeru National Park, including the natives, local guides and local government, could communicate effectively. Together with the locals, we grow towards a supportive community that serves as an attractive destination that benefits all stakeholders without exploiting the environment.

Guests could take part in our communal vision in respecting the rules around Bromo Tengger Semeru National Park.
